Welcome! I am Juliana (she/they), a passionate historian and researcher with a love of creative writing.

This is the place to get to know me: view my blog, check out my research, read my writing, or listen to my podcast. You can get in touch with me here too, or follow me on social media.

My mission when it comes to history is to cut through the politics and the mythology and try to uncover what really happened. On my fortnightly podcast “The Skeptical Historian” I explore famous (and sometimes not-so-famous) historical events from Australia and around the world, through a skeptical lens. 

I encourage you to ask questions, think critically, and feel free to respectfully disagree! My hope is that people come to history with an open mind and are encouraged to challenge the accepted myths and get closer to the truth. History is not static, and we do a disservice to the past by pretending it is sacred, untouchable and set in stone.
